Due 18th aug... Fed up

so was due on 18th, had sweep yesterday scored 5, 1cm, felt baby's head & hair, she said was a good sweep and baby very low down could even breaks waters... Had a few twinges last night and painful pelvis like baby was moving down more and a very restless night. Woke up this morning and no thing :( I'm feeling really fed up now! Went for a long walk and bounced away on my ball!! Really want baby here to enjoy some of the school hols with baby and other child, really don't think it's going to happen and will be waiting until induction in 30th. Fed up now :(

Yes really disappointing, when did u have ur sweep and what did mw say? I've another sweep on Monday she's visiting me at home but reckon it won't work! I was induced with my first and isn't wasn't a great experience wanted thing to nhsooen naturally this time and what's more frustrating is not been able to do much with other child in school hols just in case!

Im also was due 18th. Had my first sweep yesterday 12 afternoon and till now im not even lost my plug yet. Was 1-2 dileted and score was 7. Next app will be 28 august and its not even induction date. Its date for another sweep. Feeling sooo sad and depressed a specially coz my parents flying here 29.08 from Poland to meet their first granddaughter and my dad staying here just a week so he might not even meet her :-( this just killing me. Xx

Not good but your sweep sounds like it was a good one? Have u walked since ur sweep? My mum is off next week and if I am late she will be back to work! These baby's are very stubborn us mummy's are ready and they need to hurry up!! U don't have to loose ur plug my friends see worked last week and no plug lost? I'm not getting a few light period pains going to get my cleaning head on now and a long walk after dinner! It's driving me

Yeah I had long walk yesterday and was on my ball lots. I will do the same today. Dont even get small cramping or nothing. Looks like we have really stuborn babies. Yeah I think you might just lost your plug :-) excited time for you. Fingers crossed!!! Xx

It's so hard not to get frustrated and listen to all the "they will come when ready" I'm not sleeping well on a night either getting to sleep after 1 then up every hour for the toilet and been like this for weeks! Mw even said oh gosh yes she is very low down hence to constant toilet trips!!! Good luck everyone, cleaning and walking today lets hope something happens!!! X
